Also known as lumpectomy, breast lump surgery is the procedure of removing the benign tumor from one or both breasts. Lumpectomy is often performed for small breast lumps. This technique preserves the breast tissues while removing the lump successfully. If multiple lumps of large size are present, then the doctor may opt for mastectomy in which all or most of the breast tissues are removed.

Besides that, the doctor will gather information about your symptoms, medical history, and family history. The breast exams will take place, and once everything is decided, the doctor will proceed accordingly.

Ms. Shivani Negi (name changed) contacted Pristyn Care to get treatment from Dr. Nibedita Parida. She had a complaint regarding a lump in her breasts. Dr. Nibedita performed a physical examination and also suggested some diagnostic tests to identify the type of breast lump.
It was found that Ms. Shivani had a fibroadenoma. The doctor scheduled surgery two days later. The breast lump was removed successfully through excision, and the breast tissues were preserved. It took only 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete the surgery. After surgery, Ms. Shivani was transferred to the observation room and kept there for two hours. Later on, she was transferred to the recovery room and got discharged on the same day.
Her follow-ups were scheduled 10 days after the surgery and then 15 days later. Ms. Shivani followed all the instructions given by the doctor for post-op care, and she recovered very quickly. She was very happy with the results of the surgery as the lump was no longer noticeable or could be felt.
